Barnes cannot shoot. Look at his percentages.

Same can be said about Bradley Beal, but we all know he can shoot.

Thats...kind of the point of playing defense. I would hope.


I understand that. LOL, I just want to see Barnes scorch Kansas, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen.


There you go! Lol

frederick - do you understand what I was talking about before?
Barnes is the most popular prospect outside of David by a huge margin.

Barnes finally shows some aggression..

I still stand by what Kerr said. Barnes needs to be set up by good PG play in order to make baskets.
